Alas! - a mini essay

The time has come and the tulips have started vanishing with a promise to return back next spring. I thought of sharing, with you, the dying moments that, I believe, are equally significant like the times when the flowers were at their prime zeal.

Are we friends?

In my friend, I find a second self. He is the one who drops plans when I am in trouble, shares joy in my accomplishments, feels sad when I am in pain. Is he thinking of me the same way I do?

Spring has returned

When Spring unlocks the flowers to paint the laughing soil. It shows what God can do with a drab and dirty world.
